Title: SandHill Crane Migration across Nebraska
Post by: Gene in NE on March 22, 2016, 09:49:33 PM
When the 2016 Forum was started, the 2015 history of this topic was lost.  Here is a good start on some reading material.  http://www.nebraskatravels.com/sandhill-crane-migration.html (http://www.nebraskatravels.com/sandhill-crane-migration.html)

The migration (estimated at 500,000) started quite early this year.  The best viewing times are sunrise and sunset.  The cranes depart the Platte river in the morning and visit the local corn fields for feed.  Then in the evening return to the Platte to spend the night.

There is a cam at one of the viewing sites at http://rowe.audubon.org/birds/crane-cam (http://rowe.audubon.org/birds/crane-cam).

I was not aware that an actual count was taken.  Wonder how they would conduct something like that when there are around 500,000 cranes that come through the area.   The magnitude of the number has always fascinated me.  We have seen them live and in person and they do cover the sky at times providing shade from the sun.  It has always appeared they arrive and depart in droves with a constant change in numbers.

Has anyone on these forums ever participated in a count of this type??

Sadly, they did not include the middle of Nebraska where 100's of thousand's cross the Platte River twice a year.  Can you imagine the slaughter that would happen if a wind farm was built in their wide pathway across the State???

Escale [Stopover]: https://nature365.tv/november-14-2016/

We had to share this lovely Nature 365 video from Jim Brandenberg. The first birds to appear are cedar waxwings. The second birds are sandhill cranes. While this video was shot in the northern United States, more than 80% of the world?s population of sandhill cranes converge on Nebraska's Platte River valley - a critical sliver of threatened habitat in North America's Central Flyway. Along with them come millions of migrating ducks and geese. For more information, follow this link: http://www.nebraskaflyway.com/the-spring-migration-of-the-?/

I love sandhill cranes in part because of their beauty, and in part because their vocalizations always evoke a more primitive, wilder world for me. According to Wikipedia, the oldest unequivocal sandhill crane fossil is 2.5 million years old, which puts it into the Pleistocene era. This is about 1.5 million years older than the first bald eagle fossil, which appeared roughly 1 million years ago. Sandhill cranes echo an era filled with wildlife unknown to us outside the fossil record: North American horses, glyptodons, mastodons, dire wolves, scimitar cats, and sabertooth salmon, just to name a few. So much has changed, but bald eagles and sandhill cranes are still with us.

What would really help, and I've said it many times, is if these wind farms would start using the newer type turbines that are supposed to be more efficient and have NO BLADES to kill migrating birds, bats, or any that are just in the area.

We were fortunate enough to be able to take a couple days to see the SandHill Cranes this year.  Got to the Alda exit off of Interstate 80 around 10:00 am.  There is a wonderful Information Center on the South side of the interstate.  They provide you with everything you would ever want to know about the Cranes.  They have maps of the gravel roads near the exit.  They can tell you the locations where sizable flocks have been seen.  We drove that route and probably saw 3/4's of the 404,000 head that have been spotted.  We spent the night in Kearney and some time at the Rowe Sanctuary.  The structure at Rowe is built with straw bales coated with plaster.  Makes it very efficient.  The next day we watched the flocks going every direction on the compass.  Nightfall near Rowe is quite a sight.  They leave the fields where they spend all day eating the leftovers from the soybean and corn fields.  They land in the Platte river and spend the night for safety reasons.  The guests we met those 2 days were superb hosts and very neighborly.

They have a display showing the spread on a map where the Cranes travel North even up to Greenland and then for the winter they travel South to Southern Mexico.  They all cross the Platte River in about a 15 mile stretch.

Thanks for the info, Gene. There is a thread in the forum for info like this, "Off Topic" then "Wind Farms Versus Eagles."

https://www.raptorresource.org/forum/index.php?board=6.0

There was a proposal for a wind farm near the whooping cranes' area in Texas and the community wasn't happy. Don't know what happened with the proposal. The sandhill cranes are having a little more trouble in the Sandhills of western Nebraska, which you're probably aware of. And then there's the Keystone pipeline to deal with...  Seems like it's always something!  :-\

Hundreds of thousands of sandhill cranes stop along the Platte River in the midwestern U.S. to rest and refuel on their annual migrations. They often travel at night, so the ACAS system's aim is to help cranes and other birds see power lines and other human structures in the dark, enabling them to safely reach their destinations.
